“This is the last game before the break and we seek full points in order to strengthen our claim that we belong to the top four in the table. But the job on hand will not be easy because Al Khor have very good players.

“After losing to Qatar SC last week, we will try to get back to the winning path and strengthen our presence in the top-four bracket. During the break, we hope our squad will be further strengthened when some of the injured players recover.

“Our team missed four important players in the last game. We will seek to overcome what happened against Qatar SC and we will try to rectify our mistakes.

“Our team is ready to meet Al Khor. The return of Rachid Tiberkanine and Abdelkader Ilyas will do the team a world of good.

“Our goal is to stay in the top four and we are determined to come back stronger after the loss to Qatar SC,” said Nizar.
